Can't Stand the Cowboy (Thatcher Ranch Cowboys)

A stuck-up city girl. A grumpy cowboy. One scorching attraction neither can resist. When their two worlds collide, will they break each other’s hearts—or give in to the heat between them?

Addison Thatcher’s life is falling apart at the seams. Plagued by debilitating panic attacks culminating in a very public breakdown, the discouraged real estate heiress sets off to spend the summer at her cousin’s ranch. But the moment she meets the infuriatingly gruff foreman, she realizes the tranquility she’d been seeking may be impossible.

Cruz Conley will do anything to protect his peace. Grateful for the quiet life he’s built beneath Montana’s big skies, the hardworking ranch hand intends to stay away from the stubborn visiting bombshell who threatens to turn his world upside down. But when their fiery arguments spark an undeniable attraction neither of them can ignore, he worries that the woman who gets under his skin might also be the one he can’t stop craving.

Despite the way he seems to tame the storm inside her, Addison can’t ignore her parents’ expectations calling her home. And even though she makes him feel alive for the first time in years, Cruz worries he might have broken down his walls only to be shattered again.

Will fear drive them apart, or will love be strong enough to tame both their hearts?
